AS much, even SO much

Alma 38:5 is one of my most favorite.


"And now (my daughter Karen), I would that ye should remember that as much as ye shall put your trust in God even so much ye shall be delivered out of your trials, and your troubles, and your afflictions, and ye shall be lifted up at the last day".
I think I like it so much because it's kind of visual for me...it's like a scale...

AS MUCH as you put your trust in God,

even

SO MUCH ye shall be delivered out of your trials.

So as much as I want to trust God, that is how much he is going to bless me. I need to trust more, believe more, and just have the faith to know that HE has a grander plan for me....and I need to trust that.

Just the other day I received a blessing and it said this verse almost to the "T". I left with a feeling in my heart from the blessing that God has ALL of these blessings that I desire just waiting for me. And that AS MUCH as I just trust and be willing to believe, HE WILL give me those blessings that are just waiting for me.
